As Forbes put it, "While not often thought of as a 'sharing economy' company, given the massive size of the financial industry, Lending Club could end up being one of the most disruptive- and largest-companies in this sector." We think one of our own employees put it best: "Many companies talk about reshaping an industry, but Lending Club is one of the few that is actually achieving this lofty goal.
